Two children are pulling on opposite sides of a blanket. The brother is pulling with a force of 3 N. The sister is pulling with

a force of 5 N. What is the net force? In which direction would the blanket move: toward the brother or toward the sister?

Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

-F

towards the sister (-F) (greater force applied)

A system of 4 electrons, 18 protons, and 4 neutrons has a net charge of?
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

+ 14

Explanation:

18 protons make a positive 18 charge (+18)

4 electrons make a negative 4 charge (-4)

both combined give + 18 - 4 = + 14

The four neutrons don't carry net charge, so the addition of the electrons doesn' affect the net charge found above which still gives + 14.

A railroad track and a road cross at right angles. An observer stands on the road and watches an eastbound train traveling at 60
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

After 4 s of passing through the intersection, the train travels with 57.6 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Suppose the distance to the south of the crossing watching the east bound train be x = 70 m

Also, the east bound travels as a function of time and can be given as:

y(t) = 60t

Now,

To calculate the speed, z(t) of the train as it passes through the intersection:

Since, the road cross at right angles, thus by Pythagoras theorem:

z(t) = \sqrt{x^{2} + y(t)^{2}}

z(t) = \sqrt{70^{2} + 60t^{2}}

Now, differentiate the above eqn w.r.t 't':

\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 2t\times 3600

\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600t

For t = 4 s:

\frac{dz(4)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600\times 4^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600\times 4 = 57.6\ m/s

How many nanoseconds does it take light to travel 3.50 ft in vacuum?
Fiesta28 [93]
Answer:3.56 nanosecond

In this case, you are asked the time and given the light distance(3.5ft)
To answer this question you would need to know the velocity of light. Speed of light is <span>299792458m/s. Then the calculation would be:

time= distance/speed
time= 3.5 ft / (</span>299792458m/s) x 0.3048 meter/ 1 ft=  3.56 10^{-9} second or 3.56 nanosecond
